Quitting amitryptiline diary

[panic_down_under]

4th 7.5 mg dose.

Bad migraine, a little better in the afternoon. Pain in muscles. Don't know if this is withdrawals or the actual disease. Wish I knew.

There is no way of knowing. My suspicion is that neither are caused by withdrawal, but can't rule it out.

5th 7.5 mg dose.

The first day with no migraine. Oh happy happy day!!! Hugs for everyone!

6th day on 7.5 dose.

Migraine all afternoon but in a good mood. Tapering seroxat/paxil was way worse than this…

That's unusual. Amitriptyline is typically prescribed to be taken daily for anxiety/depression, neuropathic pain and migraine.

That's great!

Thank you

Today is my 2nd day on 5 mg. I’m feeling real good and surprised that I don’t feel worse. I guess paxil withdrawals scared me

It pays to just go with the flow when good fortune smiles. Examining gift horse's dental work is often unwise.
